Top ranking blog (Butter Team) has partnered with DC supersite (Brightest Young Things), the world's premiere getaway destination (The City of Baltimore), and Blonde Redhead to offer this exclusive, ultra-premium getaway package...
The first person to contact us by email will receive two passes to see Blonde Redhead at Power Plant Live this Wednesday 8/8. Yes! You could be enjoying citronique melodies among a secret society of butterflies in the city that reads, also known without a dash of irony as the greatest city in America! The phone lines are open.
Me and you and everyone we know all enjoy a good Blonde Redhead song, especially our Hell's Kitchen correspondents from Saja. But Miranda July, who poses 306 times in the 2nd video from their 7th album, 23, is prolly their number 1 fan.
Buy 23 at Insound. Buy Miranda July's book from this site made up entirely of magic markers on kitchen appliances.
Oh, plus Choose Your Own Adventure is awesome. You might still have some of their books from the old days. But what if you live for zany adventures, hate reading with a passion and/or are lazy? Listen to this snippet from CYOA Episode #1, The Abonimal Snowman, now available via audio so you don't have to make all those stressful decisions. You head to the Himalaya in search of the mythical abominable snowman. But when your climbing partner Carlos goes missing, things get twisted:
Imagine the amazing journeys you could have on the subway every morning while all the other suckers have to listen to boring music. They would know you're in the middle of a wild and crazy audio adventure, and they would be jealous. This version alone has 28 possible endings, 13 Yeti sightings, 1 helicopter crash, 2 alien encounters and one Unicorn sighting, so.
